- Title:
- Kerman Mining Concession
- Scope & Content:
-
This file consists of a report, written by the India Office's Political Department, on the subject of a mining concession in an area of the Kerman province, which is being sought by the Persian Railways Syndicate. The report provides details of the precise location of the area, and the mining rights which the Syndicate wishes to secure.
The report goes on to refer to a counter-draft to the Syndicate's own draft proposal, which has been put forward by the Persian Government, and which makes various demands including certain exceptions to the Syndicate's mining rights, Persian control over building plans, and restrictions to each working area.
The report also discusses an intervention, made by the Russian Government in June 1913, on behalf of the Société d'Etude (the international syndicate which was created to examine the Trans-Persian railway project), which suggested that there be an equal division of interest in the concession, a far as the neutral zone was concerned.
